Study: Ogling women makes them worse at math

Getting the once-over from a man causes women to score lower on a math test, a new study finds.

Despite this drop in performance, women were more motivated to interact with men who ogled them, perhaps because they were trying to boost their sense of belonging, psychologists report in the February issue of the journal Psychology of Women Quarterly.

"It creates this vicious cycle for women in which they're underperforming in math or work domains, but they're continuing to want to interact with the person who is making them underperform in the first place," study researcher Sarah Gervais, a psychologist at the University of Nebraska, Lincoln, told LiveScience.

The objectifying gaze

According to researchers, objectification happens when a person is judged on body parts or sexual function without regard to other aspects of their personality. Previous studies have found that women experience objectification frequently: One to two times a week, according to a 2001 study of U.S. college students that was published in the Journal of Social Issues. <[br />

OMG...I think I have another study they can do.

Do ugly old women melt a mans penis? ....and for how long?

Two for the price of one.

Could be because Bimbos don't have to excel in much of anything if they can find a liberal limp dick to do their work for 'em.

Here's a related study... 

Sexualized Anchors, Uninformed Male Viewers.

Could it be that news producers who showcase attractive female anchors have goals beyond simply relating information? Let’s hope so, for their sake, because a new study finds that men remember less of the news when it’s read by an “anchorette”* wearing tight clothes and red lipstick than when its presented by the same woman in a shapeless jacket, without lip color.

So....if Helen Thomas were hired to read the news, it would be seared, seared into our brains for life?

At least until the eye bleach supply caught up with the upsurge in demand.

Hormones.  Normally, though, you have to pay extra for the moaning.

And the WSJ is also owned by Rupert Murdoch.  I freely admit that Fox has some nice looking ladies on there, but some of the most attractive ones are conservative or at least act that way. That being said, I have Fox on in the back ground and do listen but not often watch it.
